SYNOPSIS
Motoring through Vermont, Philip
Starr, young Boston architect, meets,
In unconventional fashion, Blanche
Manning, girl of seventeen, with whom
he is immediately enamored. In con¬
versation, he learns something of her
family history. It being a long distance
to Burlington, Starr’s destination,
Blanche suggests, the village of Ham
stead not boasting a hotel, that he be¬
come, for the night, a guest receives of her
cousin, Mary Manning. Mary
Philip with true Vermont hospitality,
and he makes the acquaintance of her
cousin Paul, recognised as her fiance.
Btarr finds Mary is acquainted with
<rale Hamlin, noted Boston architect,
in whose office Philip is employed. He
informs her of his desire to win
Blanche for his wife. She is sympa¬
thetic, and tells him of an old family
superstition concerning the “Blanches”
of the Manning family. Paul Manning is
Inclined to be dissipated, not realizing
Mary's true worth. Mary's reproaches
for his undue "conviviality” are badlv
received by Paul, and the girl begins
to have misgivings as to the wisdom
of the alliance. Starr’s disclosure of
the fact that he is the son of a Con¬
gregational minister, and of his fi¬
nancial standing, establish him in the
Manning family’s regard.

Tt was, unfortunately. Moses who
answered the rap at the knocker. His
mouth was full of stolen sweets—he
had eaten up almost the entire con¬
tents of Mary’s box of candy—and he
had no eye for style. He was not im¬
pressed by the appearance of the
strange man. Moreover, his own ap¬
pearance could hardly have warranted
the hope that he might create a favor¬
able impression himself. The day be¬
ing warm, and Mary otherwise occu¬
pied, he had surreptitiously removed
most of his clothing—in fact, every¬
thing except a pair of ankle ties,
which had no connection with modesty
and were retained simply because the
hemp carpet in the front hall was
rough.
■'Hello," he said.
"Er—hello,” said the stranger, his
face twitching slightly. “Does Miss
Mary Manning live here?”
“Mary? Yes. She's out in the back
garden, killing potato bugs . . . that
way," said Moses, with a wave of the
hand, indicating the direction which
the stranger should take.
“Thank you very much,” said the
man. his mouth still twitching, walk¬
ing off in the direction indicated.
Mary, hearing footsteps, straightened
np quickly from the task over which
she was bent, and turned a deep crim¬
son.
“Mr. Hamlin i" she exclaimed, in
great confusion. “Oh, you must ex¬
cuse me! When did you come?”
“Just now, from Boston,” he said,
laughing and shaking hands. “I un¬
derstand you are more cordial to
guests from that locality than you
once gave me to understand you were
likely to be. f have had the pleasure
of—er—meeting one of your small
brothers, and he told me I should
probably find you here. Aren't you
glad to see ms?"
“Moses! Oh. what dreadful thing
was he doing this time? Yes, of
course I am. but—” her flush growing
deeper every minute.
“This time I came because Philip
Starr asked me to. Naturally, 1
didn't tell him how glad I was of an
excuse. He thinks I'm doing it entire¬
ly out of friendship to him—only, it’s
great luck, for me, that he happened
to fall in love with your cousin. It’ll
get Hannah and me into touch with
you again—Philip is a young man of
unusual thoroughness, promptness and
decision, as you may have gathered in
your glimpse of him—qualities which,
unfortunately, are not often found in
one who is also an artist and an ideal¬
ist Moreover, he possesses a very fine
sense of honor. He seems to be in
a tremendous hurry, but'didn’t think
it right to press his suit until he had
beeD more thoroughly introduced. I
was instructed that as soon as this for¬
mality, through me. had been accom¬
plished, I was to telegraph him at
Burlington, and he would return here
—unless, of course, it seemed absolute¬
ly hopeless for him to do so.”
“Is there any reason why it should
be hopeless?”
“None in the world.”
“Then come over and meet Cousin
V>olet."
“All right,” replied Gale Hamlin
with twinkling eyes. “But remember
that afterwards Pm coming back here
to see you!"
**.,*•*
Two days later, Philip stood in the
white-paneled north parlor of Violet
Manning’s house, waiting for Blanche
to come down to him. The room was
uniighted, and it was beginning to
grow dark.
The door opened and Blanche came
in. Philip took a step towards her,
and held out his xrms. She walked
straight into them.
"Lady Blanche—you little white
flower—Oh, my darling!" was all he
said, and covered her lifted face with
hie kisses.
CHAPTER VI
Philip Starr would never have
dreamed of considering his comfort¬
able income a fortune. But it loomed
large in the eyes of Lady Blanche
farm, and soon in those of ail the
country side, for in the general re¬
joicing at the good luck which had be¬
fallen Blanche, it was augmented—
consciously or unconsciously—by many
persons. Violet herself was largely
responsible for this. She went about
among her neighbors scattering her
good news as she went.
“Of course, Blanche Is very young,
and it breaks my heart to think of
parting with her,” she said, sighing
and wiping away a few tears. “But
I couldn't bring myself to stand in the
way of the true happiness of one of
my children for selfish reasons. That’s
never been my way. Of course
Blanche is too innocent about worldly
things and too much in love to think
of the material side at all, but we
older ones know that can't be over¬
looked altogether. Philip can do
everything for her. Yes, her ring is
lovely, isn't it? You seldom see such
pure, white diamonds. And he’s given
her a pendant, too—a diamond star!
Wasn’t that a pretty thought, and so
clever! Philip is clever, unusually so.
He says the name she’s going to have,
Blanche Starr, is a poem just in itself.
No, Philip won’t hear of a long en¬
gagement, so I’m going to take Blanche
to Boston right away, to buy her
trousseau, and see caterers and sta¬
tioners and so on. I guess 1 can show
his fashionable friends that 1 know
how things should be done, even if I
do live in the country!—They’re go¬
ing to California on their wedding
trip—of course Philip would have
taken Blanche to Europe if this tire¬
some war hadn’t been going on.
Blanche is going to keep a maid, and
“Lady Blanche—You Little White
Flower.”
ning. Of course, alf Philip’s friends—
and he has thousands of them—will
entertain for her and give her a beau¬
tiful time. Philip is charming, and
that’s so rare in a man! He is so
thoughtful and pleasant always. 1
simply adore him myself. . .
There was not a single flaw in the
crystal. Violet could purr on for
hours. In fact Hamstead grew a little
tired of so much perfection and so
much purring.
Nevertheless, in spite of some ex¬
pressions of disparagement, Mrs. El¬
liott and all Hamstead with her,
flocked to see the trousseau, and then
the presents, and. in early August, to
the wedding. During the two months
and a half that had elapsed since his
first appearance there, Philip had
spent every Sunday and holiday at
Lady Blanche farm, and, as Mrs.
Elliott said, had been so “pleasant
spoken” that he had become cordially
iiked in the village; and, in turn, he
had come to have a very warm and
real affection for many of his new
friends and relatives. Only twice had
his dream of perfect* happiness been
shaken; and he tried to dismiss both
of these episodes from his mind as
trivial.
Left alone for a time one rainy
morning, he had decided to explore the
little, abandoned law office. He had
been thinking what fun it would be
to restore it, and put it in order for
Blanche and himself to occupy when
they came to Hamstead to visit. It
contained a cellar and two large,
semicircular rooms, one above the other,
and a small one with a little attic
over it in the rear. He sat in
one of the dilapidated chairs, pulled
up a shaky table, and drew plans and
sketches. Under his swift pencil, the
tiny place became transformed. There
was the living room, bright with white
paint and a landscape paper, and s'hin
ing brasses, with Lady Blanche's por¬
trait over the mantel, her desk in one
corner, her harpsichord in another,
and her gate-legged mahogany table
in the center of the room; there was
the chamber, with her four-posted bed
—one of her hand-woven linen sheets
serving for a counterpane—her bu¬
reau with its crystal lusters for
Blanche, her low-boy for his own
dressing table, her long gilt-framed
mirror, and the sampler she had
stitched, on the flowered walls instead
of pictures.
He spent a long time over his pleas¬
ant task. Then, finding that Blanche,
who had promised to join him there,
was still nowhere in sight, he picked
up some of the musty books lying on
the table, and began to look through
them.
They were mostly law books, with
a few interesting marginal notes that
the second Moses Manning had made;
but Philip knew little or nothing about
law, and did not understand them.
The third volume that he opened, less
bulky than the others, proved to be a
county history, written by a local
clergyman early in the Nineteenth
century. The Connecticut valley had
./
CLEVELAND COURIER
been settled by men of no slight cali¬
ber, and their subsequent Revolution*
ary record was noteworthy. Philip
read on with increasing interest,
which grew greater still when he
reached that portion of the history
devoted mainly to the Manning family.
Here were Moses Manning's fine war
service—the trip to Prance—and here,
too, was the Countess Blanche! The
story of the great chests that came
over the sea. And, at last, came the
date of the twins’ birth, and, a few
pages farther on, that of Lady
Blanche's death. But between these
dates was something that Philip had
not yet heard.
. . And the Lady Blanche, being
very weak after her long travail, was
sorely spent, for she was a female
elegantly formed, but not sturdy, or of
sound health. She lay in great pain,
and ever and anon she sank into a
stupor from which none could rouse
her, nor did she regard my exhorta¬
tion, or the lamentations of her af¬
flicted husband. But suddenly she did
speak in a loud voice, saying, ‘Since
I must die, neither shall any other
woman in this village who beareth
twins survive her cruel labor; and
though I perish, there shall be, in
every generation, a Blanche Manning
on this farm, who shall have not only
my name, but in whom my person
shall also be seen again. And sh#
shall wed for love, being hotly wooed,
even as I was wooed, by a stranger.
But because I have suffered, for all
my love, in this unfriendly, cold coun¬
try, and because be who swore to love
me best has not saved me from an¬
guish, but hath shown his love to be
but selfishness, since he hath failed
me when I most did need him—there¬
fore, I say, she shall not love for long.
Within five years of her marriage
either she or her husband shall die,
and die with the bitter knowledge that
neither riches nor passion nor high
romance, nay, not even all three to¬
gether, suffice to make that great
thing called love unless there be other
things, which my lover hath not given
me, added unto them. And, in the
hour of their death, I will appear unto
those who die. and comfort them, for
the manner of their passing shall be
lonely and grievous altogether.’
“And thereat," went on the chron¬
icler, “she lay back upon her bed in
peace, and did not speak again. And
we marveled greatly that one so gen¬
tle should seek, in her last moments,
to lay a curse upon her innocent de¬
scendants.”
Philip closed the book, shivering,
and angry and ashamed because he
was shivering. That silly old super¬
stition—what did it amount to! But
—had it amounted to anything? He
began, involuntarily, to recall the his¬
tories of other members of the Man¬
ning family. The countess’ giri-twin
—the second Blanche—bad raarrie^i
'Virginian, a classmate of her broth¬
er’s at Harvard, who was shot, after
they had had only a few radiant
months together, in a duel with the
man who had once been his best
friend. The lawyer, Moses, had a
daughter named Blanche, who went
west in a prairie schooner on her
honeymoon, and was never heard of
again after she passed the Alleghenies.
And the lawyer’s eldest son had a
daughter who—but that story was too
dreadful, and contained shame as well
as tragedy. Feeling as if bis throat
were being clutched, and as if he
could not shake himself free of the
hand that choked him. Philip sprang
to his feet to see an apparition stand¬
ing in the doorway.
Blanche also had been spending her
time that rainy morning by making
an excursion Into the past, Her moth¬
er had felt it a good opportunity for
them to go through some of the
chests carefully stowed away in the
attic in search of treasures to add to
her trousseau and they had found a
tiny iron-bound trunk, thrust far un¬
der the eaves and forgotten, full of
the countess' clothes; Blanche had
carried them down to her bedroom
and tried them on. They fitted her as
if they bad been made for her.
“Couldn’t I keep one of them on.
and surprise Philip?”
”1 think it would be lovely! And
you can do your hair tike hers in the
portrait, and wear that white broyade
dress that she had it painted in—vw’d
be the living image of-her!”
Accordingly, after a careful sturf* ;
of the famous picture. Blanche dlt , !
her -hair, with Violet’s help, high oj
her head, powdered it. laced hersell
into the stiff, magnificent gown that
had been the countess' wedding dress,
and went out to join Philip.
The startled, almost terrified cry
that escaped him when lie saw her
frightened her almost out of her
senses. She ran to him. and put her
arms around him. trembling, too.
“What is it?” she exclaimed. “Oh.
Philip! What’s the matter?”
“Nothing—nothing. . . . How lov<v
!y you look! . . . Are those some
the first Blanche’s clothes?”
“Yes. Don’t you think they'rt
pretty?”
"Beautiful, darling. You—you're
very like her. aren’t you? Like her
picture, of course, I mean."
“Yes—but I don't see why you *eero
so upset, even if I am I thought it
would please you to see me dressed
up like this!”
Philip forced a laugh. “I'm not up¬
set,” he said pleasantly. “You startled
me a little, that’s all. You’re—you’re
enough to startle any man. you're so
lovely. T want a kiss—and I want to
consult you about something.
. .
And then he told her of his scheme
for fixing up the little office.
To his surprise, she did not respond
to him with enthusiasm. At first she
looked a little bored. Then she in¬
terrupted him with a petulance which
shocked him.

I. The Effect of Alcohol Upon the
Individual (Prov. 23:29-32).
1. Woes of those who indulge in
wine (vv. 29, 30). No more graphic
description of the evils of the wine
bibber has ever been 'given. It por¬
trays in the most impressive manner
the miseries that mark the drunkard's
life. There are six of them.
a. Awful pain, causing them to cry
out.
b. Bitter remorse. Many are tha
expressions of bitter regret upon the
Ups of the drunkard.
c. Strife and quarreling. The drunk¬
en man is always ready for a fight.
He takes offense as well as gives it.
d. Complaining. The winebibber
complains of everything, ill luck, bro¬
ken fortune, ruined health, loss of
friends, and even of God.
e. Wounds without cause. He has
many wounds which might have been
avoided—from fights in which a sober
man would not have been engaged
and from accidents which result from
intoxication.
f. Redness of eyes, the bloodshot
eyes of the tippler.
2. The drunkard's bitter end (w.
32-35).
a. Acute miseries (v. 32.) “It biteth :
like a serpent, and stingeth like an I I
adder.” Strong drink, like the poison
of the serpent, permeates the whole ;
being, causing suffering and 'death.
b. Perversion of the moral senses :
(v. 33.) This excitement causes the -
eyes tic images to behold which strange produced things, fantas- the j '
are on
brain of the drunkard. The heart also i
utters perverse things.
c. He is insensible to danger. The j
drunkard is foolhardy in his acts. j
d. He is insensible to pain (v. 35). i
He has many bruises and wounds for
which he cannot account.
e. He is in abject bondage (v. 35).
He is a bond slave to the ways of
sin.
f. Hell at last, for no drunkard shall
enter the kingdom of heaven (I Cor.
C :10).
3. The attitude enjoined (v. 31). It
Is "look not at it.” Total abstinence is
the only safe attitude toward strong
drink.
I!. Effect of Alcohol Upon the Na¬
tion (Isa. 28 :l-4).
Just as indulgence in intoxicating
drinks brings ruin to the individual, |
so it destroys the nation. God pro- j
nounced judgment upon Israel because
of the sin of drunkenness (v. 1). i
Samaria was the capital city, there- ;
fore stands for the nation. Drunken¬
ness seems to have been a national
sin at this time (Isa. 5:11, 12; 7:5; j
Amos 2:fi. S. 12; 4:1 ; 6:6). Samaria's
position was an enviable one; the i
whole nation was proud of her. The
crown of pride whose beauty had been
so marked was now fading through
the blighting effects of drunkenness.
Even as ruin came upon Israel, so
will God visit judgment upon America
for its drunkenness. The instrument
by which the punishment of Israel
was effected was the Assyrian (v. 2).
Tlie imagery of this verse shows that
destruction was sudden, swift, and ir¬
resistible.
III. The Effect of Alcohol Upon Na¬
tional Rulers (Daniel 5:1-4).
Belshazzar’s impious feast is an
outstanding example of the effect of
alcohol upon rulers. Note—
1. The attendants at the feast (vv.
1, 2). There were present Belshazzar
the king, his wife and concubines, and
a thousand of his lords.
2. Their behavior (w. 3, 4).
a. They drank wine.
h. They committed sacrilege. They
drank wine out of sacred vessels
which had been taken out of the Tem¬
ple. the house of God at Jerusalem.
c. They worshiped idols. They prayed
to gods of gold and silver, of brass,
or iron. wood, and stone, and chal¬
lenged the rule of the living God.
With the repeal of the Eighteenth
amendment will but come the loss not of only that nation- high j
ai disgrace
standard which has ns a rule charac¬
terized American rulership from the
President to the humblest civil officer.
One shrinks from the contemplation
of what awaits our nation in its de¬
termination to legalize the Intoxicat¬
ing cup.

Deaths From Accidents
Show Small Decrease
For 1932 North Dakota had the
lowest motor vehicle death rate—8.3
per 100,000 population; Nevada had
the highest—57.7.
Medford, Mass., population 64,300,
was the largest reporting city to go
through the entire year without a
motor vehicle death.
Milwaukee had the lowest motor
vehicle fatality rate of all large
cities—13.6 per 100,000 population;
Los Angeles had the highest, 32.6.
There were 8,500,000 nonfatal in¬
juries last year. In other words, one
person out of every fourteen was
hurt in an accident.
There were nearly as many acci¬
dental deaths in homes as in traffic,
and more injuries in the home than
in traffic.
The accident death rate for 1932.
70.5 per 100.000 population, is the
lowest on record except for 1921 and
1922.
Falls and burns were responsible
for 60 per cent of all home deaths
last year.
Nearly one-third of all home acci¬
dental deaths involved children un¬
der fifteen years of age.
Deaths from drowning and fire¬
arms show practically no change
from year to year, despite all the
educational work done to reduce
them.—From Accident Facts, Issued
